Re: [QGIS-Developer] Vote for Lat Lon Tools Default Coordinate Order - YX or XY

In the 1970 to early 1980 when I started working with computers almost everything was N E and Lon Lat. Z was also positive down and azimuth positive from North to East (good old right hand rule) since most of the work was for drilling or mine workings this worked fine. If you look back at gras

Martin a general comment on “All references to files will be saved as absolute paths “ why does things have to be absolute path especially if you eventually will design for Geopackage that is suppose to simplify portability can the Path not be divided into two separate names 1) one that is

I have a question on the 3D that was proposed in the grant for the use with QT 3D. Am i wrong to think this is really oriented towards what some people call 2.5D (terrain model as shown in the proposal example) or will there be support for 3D that will be able to display 3D meshes or volumes li
